G'day, i inherited my Dads1993 TD42 turbo, it had boat lifter rack and the roof is full of rust and its eating into the two rear sliding windows at the top, considered my options and scored a grandpa spec 1992 TB42 for $2500 and had it flatopped to my partners place (she has two double garages and a big concrete area) for another $250.
ive read an excellent post on here by Andyh on his conversion, great post andy, heaps of info The TD42 is a very reliable bus and runs very well, the TB42 spat a welsh plug and cooked the motor but everything works.
so plan is to strip out what isnt needed in the TB42 and get it ready for transplant, (selling the duel fuel system, reasonably new exhaust system, ECU, etc etc) both cars are autos and from what ive read my diesel will fit straight in, the diesel fuel tanks and plumbing will have top be taken out and transplanted as well, and the wiring loom and dash pod.
